The simple fix comes to us by way of Lee Washington, a London-based gentleman. His main idea is: headphones tangle because the separate cords between the actual headphone and the jack work up a sweat, and get all higgledy piggledy.

What you do is make it so that the cords are able to zip together, like a Ziplock bag. When you want to listen to music, you unzip. When you’re all done, you zip ’em back together.

No more tangles.

This is the first time I’ve seen such an invention, so feel free to correct me if some indie inventor (like an East Side Dave, for example) had already developed a similar solution.
